Nuovo Mercato Esquilino

MarketLocal favourite

Rome's most multicultural market, in a former barracks near Piazza Vittorio: spices, rice, pulses, unusual vegetables, halal meat and fish for Asian, African, Middle Eastern and Eastern European kitchens. Romans and the city's immigrant communities shop here; visitors heading for Termini rarely step inside.
